NAME
   HTTP::Tiny::UA - Higher-level UA features for HTTP::Tiny

VERSION
   version 0.006

SYNOPSIS
       use HTTP::Tiny::UA;

       my $ua = HTTP::Tiny::UA->new(
           ...
       );

DESCRIPTION
   This module extends HTTP::Tiny with higher-level convenience features.

METHODS
 new
       $http = HTTP::Tiny::UA->new( %attributes );

   This is inherited from HTTP::Tiny. The only difference so far is that
   "agent" will be "HTTP-Tiny-UA/$VERSION".

   *   "agent"

       A user-agent string (defaults to 'HTTP-Tiny-UA/$VERSION'). If
       "agent" ends in a space character, the default user-agent string is
       appended.

   *   "cookie_jar"

       An instance of HTTP::CookieJar or equivalent class that supports the
       "add" and "cookie_header" methods

   *   "default_headers"

       A hashref of default headers to apply to requests

   *   "local_address"

       The local IP address to bind to

   *   "max_redirect"

       Maximum number of redirects allowed (defaults to 5)

   *   "max_size"

       Maximum response size (only when not using a data callback). If
       defined, responses larger than this will return an exception.

   *   "proxy"

       URL of a proxy server to use (default is $ENV{http_proxy} if set)

   *   "no_proxy"

       List of domain suffixes that should not be proxied. Must be a
       comma-separated string or an array reference. (default is
       $ENV{no_proxy})

   *   "timeout"

       Request timeout in seconds (default is 60)

   *   "verify_SSL"

       A boolean that indicates whether to validate the SSL certificate of
       an "https" connection (default is false)

   *   "SSL_options"

       A hashref of "SSL_*" options to pass through to IO::Socket::SSL

   See SSL SUPPORT in HTTP::Tiny for more on the "verify_SSL" and
   "SSL_options" attributes.

 get|head|put|post|post_form|mirror|delete
   These methods are inherited from HTTP::Tiny and work the same, except
   they invoke the HTTP::Tiny::UA request method and return a
   HTTP::Tiny::UA::Response object.

 request
       my $res = HTTP::Tiny->new->get( $url );

   Just like HTTP::Tiny::request, but returns a HTTP::Tiny::UA::Response
   object. All other "get", "post", etc. methods eventually invoke this one
   so all such methods return response objects now.

EXCEPTIONS
   Exceptions from "max_size", "timeout" or other error conditions will
   result in a pseudo-HTTP status code of 599 and a reason of "Internal
   Exception". The content field in the response will contain the text of
   the exception.

CONTRIBUTING
   Unlike HTTP::Tiny, this module is open to additional features. Please
   discuss new ideas on the bug tracker for feedback before implementing.

   While this module is not strictly "Tiny", here are some general
   guidelines:

   *   The goal for this module is not feature/API equivalence with
       LWP::UserAgent

   *   Core module dependencies and "Tiny"-ish module dependencies are OK

   *   Other CPAN modules should be used sparingly and only for good
       reasons

   *   Any XS dependencies must be optional

SEE ALSO
   *   HTTP::Tiny — the underlying client

   *   HTTP::Thin — another HTTP::Tiny extension that uses HTTP::Message
       objects

   *   LWP::UserAgent — when you outgrow HTTP::Tiny, use this
